SHARE THE HONOUR won his only start on the Flat at Dundalk in February and it is interesting that Tony Martin elects to go straight over hurdles now with the champion jockey booked. There are some smart prospects in this field but he could be up to winning. Cook Islands is one of two for his trainer and should be capable of going well but there might be more juice in the price about stablemate Monarch who has also shown plenty promise on the Flat. First Class Ticket and Coldamour are other that might go well in an open maiden.
